Movie Reviews of Pumpkinhead
Movie Review: DAMN, THIS MOVIE WAS AWESOME!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I read a lot of mixed reviews around the net and I was stunned at how great this film is. Is a beautifully eerie backwoods fairy tale filled with fantastic atmosphere and well defined characters. Lance Henriksen
Gives a performance that I would argue rivals any "Oscar" performance you wish choose. Pumpkinhead him self is gloriously realized by the Stan Winston (Who also Directed the film) and when he comes on screen, he is genuinely frightening. I would strongly recommend this film to anyone who has even a fainting interest in horror and wants to see a masterpiece.
Summary of Pumpkinhead
Lance Henriksen (Aliens, Millenium ) stars in this vivid, stylish, atmospheric (The Hollywood Reporter) and heart-poundingly scary fright fest directed by four-time Oscar?(r)winner* Stan Winston and written by Mark Patrick Carducci and Gary Gerani. When a group of rambunctious teenagers inadvertently kill his only son, Ed Harley (Henriksen) seeks the magic of a backwoods witch to bring the child back. But when she tells him the child's death is irrevocable, his grief develops into an all-consuming desire...for revenge! Defying superstition, he and the witch invoke 'the pumpkinhead a monstrously clawed and fanged demon which, once reborn, answers only to Ed's bloodlust. But as the invincible creature wreaks its slow, unspeakable tortures on the teens, Ed confronts a horrifying secret about his connection to the beastand realizes that he must find a way tostop its deadly mission before he becomes one with it forever! *1986: Visual Effects, Aliens; 1991: Visual Effects, Make-Up, Terminator 2: Judgment Day; 1993: Visual Effects, Jurassic ParkA starkly original visual treat, this Halloween-themed exercise in terror is uncommonly well made, seeking to add yet another creature to horror film lore. A group of teenagers camping in a remote mountain resort accidentally kill a boy and cover it up, and his aggrieved father (Lance Henriksen) vows revenge. Enlisting the help of a local witch, he conjures up a mythic demonic monster to kill those responsible for his son's death. The plot and dialogue are not very original, but the creepy mood and some fine work by director Stan Winston (the special effects whiz behind Jurassic Park) make Pumpkinhead an eerie gothic horror tale and great viewing for Halloween nights. --Robert Lane
